Controls

scale
Distance between lattice nodes. Not the size of a blob — blobs come out two or three times larger, as neighbours are smoothed together
octaves
How many octaves are summed. One gives soft blobs with no fine detail; five give the cloud texture
lacunarity
How much denser each next octave is. Exactly two is bad: the nodes land on each other and leave a lattice trace
gain
How much quieter each next octave is. A half is the pink falloff where no scale dominates; near one the fine octaves bury the coarse
ridged
Folds the field about its middle, so a sharp ridge appears where the zero level was. A different pattern, not a softer one
bias
What the middle of the scale turns into. The ends stay put, so detail near them is not clipped into a slab
low
A colour, #0b1020 by default.
high
A colour, #e8f0ff by default.
